The action of osmosis will cause the cell to shrivel up
The independent assortment of genes is a principle of Mendel and of genetics. Since humans are diploid organisms (they have 2 copies of their genetic information), we have that each gamete carries one of the two available alleles for each feature. These gametes are created in equal proportions.
We have that both parents are heterozygous for a feature, lets say H. Thus, their genotype is Hh. Hence, the child will get with probability 50%=1/2 H from the father and 50%=1/2 h from the father; same from the mother. By doing a Punnett square, we get that there is 1/4 chance that the child is HH, 1/2 chance that it is Hh and 1/4 that is hh. Since the disease is recessive (so both alleles are needed), we have that the chance that the kid has the disease is 1/4.
The over-harvesting is one of the biggest threats to endangered species.
<u>Option: B</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
- An organism or group of organism or species that is expected to reach extinction in the immediate future, either internationally or under a limited political authority, is understood as an endangered species.
- This may be at threat because of factors including habitat loss and poaching or over-exploitation.
- There are many species which are getting vanished day by day due to pollution or poaching, for an instance, pangolins, who have been hunted beyond he limits for their skin, scales, meat, and some body parts are utilized by people in making traditional medicine.
- The Indian and Philippine pangolin are listed as endangered while the Sunda and the Chinese pangolin are rated as critically endangered by the IUCN, which contributed to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) prohibiting global trade that had something to do with pangolins or their components.
Food web stability is most dependent on the number of connections among species.
